Penn of DennI could hardly believe my eyes. My little red car was in pieces, all over the body shop floor. I had left it behind two weeks before, to have some work done on the fenders and rocker panels, but it looked like it had progressed a little bit further than that. The owner…
Hello Fall
Penn of DennWell folks, here is the reality: Summer is over. I know it's not officially over until September 21st, but for all intensive purposes, summer is tout fini! The kids are back in school, the nights are getting cooler and a certain normalcy is returning to our lives. So I thought I'd take this…
Letter to the Church: Ephesus
It was the first of the seven. Out of all the church in all the countries Jesus singled out these seven to originally receive the message of the Revelation, but before they were to read the book Jesus had a message for them. You ever wonder why? Why not just jump in with all the…
Letter to the church Intro
One letter, seven churches. Most of us are familiar with the Revelation of John, the last book in the New Testament, or at least we think we are. We've breezed through it pausing on the sensational bits, dragons, beasts with seven heads and ten horns and locust the size of Volkswagens. But for most of…
What a Ride
Penn of DennBonza! (that's Australian for awesome2). I had to travel to New Brunswick for meetings this week and as is my custom, I was renting a car for the trip. When I got to the agency, there was a brand new convertible in the yard, so I asked if they would give me a…
What is Your Canadian Idol
Anybody been watching Canadian Idol this season? I have just caught one episode and I really should make a confession here, I only watch it for the train wrecks in the first few weeks. The same with American Idol, I think I have only watched one season all the way through since American Idol debuted…
Walking the Walk
Penn of DennTo walk where Jesus walked; wow that has always been a dream of mine (In case there are any dream fairies out there!). I read an article the other day, about a company that is now offering GPS tours leading you along a 64 km trail in the footsteps of Christ, which is…
Why?
I’m confused, again or still or whatever. Last weekend, I read an interview in the paper with John Shelby Spong, who is an Anglican Bishop. What I’m confused about, is why he is an Anglican Bishop, or any kind of bishop for that matter. In the interview, it stated that Spong dismisses the Virgin Birth…

We Win!
Well, another survey is out, showing that Christianity is losing ground and that church attendance is down. But, depending on your perspective, we aren’t losing, we’re winning. When you stop and think about it, every person who isn’t a Christian hasn’t been lost from Christianity, they just haven’t been won to Christianity yet. The starting…
